Subject:
An excellent book
Does not contain any of his personal drama *common law marriage, trouble with his son) but is stil fascinating.

Subject:
Absolutely fascinating!
I found listening to Ben Franklin's autobiography, most professionally read by Mr. Gilberd, to be thoroughly enjoyable.
I recommend it heartily. Enjoy!
